Leading law firm Thrings continued its growth in Hampshire with the appointment of an award-winning new associate in its Restructuring and Insolvency team.
Charlotte Boatman joins the firm’s Romsey office, bringing more than a decade of legal experience in both contentious and non-contentious matters, built during her time at some of the region’s most notable firms.
With expertise in all areas of restructuring and insolvency, including liquidations, administrations and bankruptcies, antecedent transactions and claims, and pre-pack administrations, Charlotte will be an integral part of the team’s work to support its business and private clients across a wide array of sectors facing financial challenges as well as Insolvency Practitioners.
Praised by the Legal 500, one of the sector’s most prestigious directories, as “an excellent solicitor” operating “at a much higher level than her job title”, Charlotte has developed an outstanding reputation for her personable, professional and technical approach to her work.
As former Chair of both the national New Professionals Steering Group of R3 – the UK’s association of insolvency and restructuring professionals – and the Southern and Thames Valley New Professionals committee, Charlotte actively promotes and supports new entrants to all professionals working in the field.
Her current work as part of R3’s Southern and Thames Valley committee, helping to develop the profession and its links to stakeholders in the business community, played a major part in her winning the Vice President’s Young Professional Award in 2025.
On joining the firm, Charlotte said: “Thrings has a strong reputation for putting clients at the heart of everything it does, and I’m excited to contribute to that ethos.
“Restructuring and insolvency can be daunting, but there is also scope for opportunity with the right guidance and I’m looking forward to helping our clients find clarity, confidence and the best possible outcomes for them.”
Mark Cullingford, Thrings’ Head of Restructuring and Insolvency, added: “We are thrilled to have Charlotte join our team as we continue to strengthen our presence across the south coast in this field of work and many others.
“We look forward to working with her and utilising her wealth of technical experience and national-level perspective to support our clients in achieving their goals during what is an often uncertain and challenging time.”
